November is Adopt A Senior Pet Month, and we here at Cattime could not be happier about it. We know that kittens are adorable and hard to resist, but there is so much to love about owning a senior cat.

Back in 2016, Liz Kirkham found a feral cat in a deathly ill state outside her apartment complex in Oxford, Ohio -- and it was the start of a journey that would involve love, heartbreak, and the rescue of a second feline in need.

Kaplan has since found jobs for over 500 cats, in places like police stations, schools, churches and even homes, where the felines are often reported to have become domesticated and friendly after a period of time.

According to ASPCA, roughly 3.4 MILLION cats are entered into shelters each year in the United States. Of these 3.4 million, a good portion of these kitties are deemed “less adoptable.” Felines that fall into this category are often FIV positive, senior cats, black cats, or cats with disabilities.
